Dolphin mania

We arrived in Shark Bay, a world heritage listed area and spotted marine life straight away. We saw dolphins with our binoculars from this lookout...

Then we went to a board walk at Eagle Bluff and saw lots of sea birds, small sharks, rays and possibly a turtle, but we're not quite sure, he was a long way away!

We spent a balmy evening camped on the beach in a wilderness campsite near Denham. It really was in the wilderness, there were only 4 pitches on the whole site! It started off with just us on the site in the middle of no where with no other signs of life, including no water, no toilet nor any other facility. We cooked supper on our camp stove, then sat in the tent looking up at the stars and getting slightly twitchy about the different noises coming from the pitch black! Then at about 9pm two cars rolled up nearby and decided to have a party until 2am! Hmm, not so relaxing. I did the classic British trait of moaning about it all night and not doing anything about it!!! Poor, long suffering Selina.

The next day made the sleepless night worth every second. We went up to Monkey Mia at the crack of dawn and volunteered with feeding the dolphins. Wow, great fun. Here's Selina about to call out people to come and give her dolphin Shock a fish:

We saw loads of dolphins and I got to feed one called Nicki! We carried on the day with a dip at Little Lagoon (our first swim in Australia) very shallow and warm and possibly the most boring attraction in Oz......stromalites! They are supposedly 3.5 billion years old, but we didn't think the short walk from the car in the sizzling sun was worth it, sorry LP!
